This is a STUPID conversation. Here's why: Rally organizers (whoever they are) will claim big numbers. The police and civic officials (who have other axes to grind) will quote their estimates. Then, whoever it is that DISAGREES with the organizers will hire the "crowd numbers expert consultant" whose sole job it is to lowball the numbers. And he/she does just that. Face it: NOBODY KNOWS THE NUMBERS. NOBODY! You can believe whomever you want to believe. Which is exactly what you are doing. And that figure is just a number in YOUR MIND. And that is all. Namaste!
